The Value Of The SunfIower.

1t is stated on the authority Of a
Cuban journal that since tie sun
flower has been cultivated in GER
tain swampv districts on the banks
Of the river Potomac malarial fever
has almost ceased to be epidemic
there. Similar beneficial results
appear also to have followed the
cultivation of this plant in the
neighborhoOd Of the mouth OF the
Scheldt III Holland. The editor of
the Monthly Journal of Pharmacy,
who has been engaged in obser-
vations on sunfowers, found that
during the month of June, 1885, a
quarter of an acre Of sunhowers
exhaled, with a mean temperature
of 20 degrees i. at midday, exactly
| $50 gallons of water in the form
of vapor, or So gallons a day. He
attributes the anti malarial action
of the sunflOwer, therefore, not
only to It's properties of absorbing
and destroying the malarial mlasm
and of emitting an abundance of
pure oxygen, as taught by other
writer's, but also to It's great ca
pacity, owing to its rapid and
vigorous vegetation, Of absorbing
and utilizing the moisture OF the
soil in districts which are unfit for
mans habi tatiOn. He likewise
suggests that he aromatic odor of
the flowers may perhaps be pos
sessed of antiseptic virtues.

Boil Your MIX.

1t is now decidedly proved that
scarlet fever is due to the multipli-
cation within the body of minute
plants (micrococci) which are in
troduced from unhealthy cows.
These creatures are, however,
killed by boiling the milk. In one
case a lodger died after drinking
unboiled injected milk, while the
landlady, who drank the same milk
boiled, experienced no i'll effect.
BY itself this case proves little,
bat in association with DR.. Klein's
careful experiments and Observa'
tions it goes to prove the truth of
the proposition.-Vick's Mdgisine

There were probably twelve or fif-

THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.

Published by request Of the w. G. T. L..
Every cause can be judged by
the character OF its adventure and
followers. In all true and noble
reformations the leaders have been
men who are opposed to immortal
ity and vice. The followers have
been those who, seeing the evils of
the institution attacked, have been
willing and ready to defy public
opinion in doing that which their
conscience told them was right.
When a cause gathers around 1t
the immoral and Iaw-breaking
classes, it becomes high time to in
quire into the morality of the cause.
Take the liquor traffic and who are
its advocates and supporters. The
better class of liquor dealers, and
those who hold their influence and
standing, not through good works.
but because Of the money they
have amassed in the traffic. How
many of them are a strong support
TO the church of Christ How
many of them stand forth as bene.
factors of mankind I How many of
them are philanthropists who are
willing to devote time, energy and
means to the alienation of the
suffering of humanity. What
benevolent society for the aid OF
the poor receives a strong support
from the liquor dealers What
missionary work have they ever
doneY What moral reform through
all the ages has ever been led by a
liouor dealer? What school of
learning have they ever founded :
What liquor dealer has trained up
n child in the "nurture aud admo-
milton of the Lord'' and sent him
forth to laborin Christ's Kingdom =?
These things show the real principle
of the liquor dealer. What class
of people does the liquor dealer
gather around him q? Is it the moral
and religions Is 1t even the law
abiding as a classl Go into the
slums of our great cities and see It
the occupants of those low, degrad'
ed centres of vice aud immortality
do not flock to the saloon. Is it
not notorious fact that drinking
places are frequented by those who
live upon the fruits of their crimes.
and that IN many cases the saloon
is the headquarters for criminal
associations where burglary, arson
and murder are deliberately plan.
ned I True, all men who frequent
saloons are not criminals, but is it
not a fact that criminals asa class
do frequent the saloons? Under
these circumstance What should
be and what is the real standiug OF
the liquor trailer Is it net high
time that tue masses of the people
should inquire into the real object
aud working of n traffic that has
CURSED our land with pauperism
and crime for centuriesl Can any
one point out Il single benefit de-
rived from this trafllci Are not its
injuries aud crimes against society
legion2 In the face of all these
things. how will you Judge it,

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
CARE or WORK HORSES.

1t is almost % generally couceded
fact that the horses OF farmers are
not kept IN rs good condition as
are those Of our city neighbors.-
The question arises, why notg IL
must be caused by neglect and
cirelessness. Far too many of our
brother farmers take good care OF
their COWS and other stock, bat
leave the poor horse to shift for
himself During the hot weather
horses are tOrmented by flies and
insects of many kinds, and if they
are worked hard all day in the hot
sun, they deserve the best OF care
both night and morning. Not hav-
ing 1t is the cause of their being 50
often found in poor condition. /
have found that it fully compensat.
ed for the time expended to give
each horse a good rubbing of with
a wisp OF straw in the morning be-
fore going to work and at night to
give a good, thorough cleaning,
which insures rest and comfort IN a
far greater degree than if simply
fed when hot aud sweaty, after the
days work is done.
a plan that have pursued and
found to act very benehcially is TO
let the horses stand and become
thoroughly cooled and cleaned be.
fore feeding at night. 1t is also a
very excellent plan to feed hay be-
fore grain, as the ANIMALS hunger
being partially satisfied he will eat
his grain slower, chewing it more
thoroughly and, of course, with
better results. AS bOrse's stom.
ach in small in proportion to the
size of the animal. if fed the grain
first and then allowed to eat all the
hay he wants, if he is a greedy feed
or, be will fill his stomach so full
that the grain will be pushed on
into the intestlnes only partially
digested, and of course with loss
of nourishment to the animal. AL
most every horse owner has differ
ent ideas about the kind of feed a
horse should have. Bot consider
that the majority of farm horses In
New England are fed too much
corn, especially in summer. Corn
contains a large amount of carbon
and is to a great extent of a heat
ing and fattening nature and makes
much better food for winter than
summer. Oats, | think, make a
much better feed for a horse, es'
pecialIy where he is called upon to
work in the sun during the hot
months. If corn must be fed, Its
influence Is much improved by
feeding wheat bran or some grain
containing what the corn lacks, IN
connection with it. Water should
be given often and in small quanti'
1 ties. IL Is not right TO work a team
all the forenoon in the hot snn and
4 then let them fII their StOmachS
with water just before or after eat
/ ing their noonday meal. See that
all parts of the harness dt perfect
Is and comfortably, for the old
saying that "worry wears more
/ than work" applies to horses as
well as men. A little extra care in
the case of our horses will he am.
ply repaid in looks, ability to work
and length of days.-COr. ". e.
